"This interactive video installation is a poetic reflection on travel, sensuality and identity in cyberspace which Bill Seaman stages through the combination of an interactive poetry program, self-generating poetic texts and an associative image and sound level."[1]

“In this interactive installation, a richly layered stream of poetic text, video and other
images is projected onto three screens, accompanied by music and spoken word. The
sequence and overlapping of these elements is variable and incorporates what the artist
terms ‘recombinant poetics’. Users can activate and modulate the visual, sonic and
textual elements via lists and menus, generating multimedia collages.”[2]
